Safari privacy tab does not list options for allowing or blocking cookies

Under the privacy tab of Safari's preferences menu, the only option that is listed is "Block all cookies." The options "Allow from current website only," "Allow from websites I visit," or "Always allow" are not listed at all. I've attached a screenshot of the privacy menu that pops up. As you can see, the only option is "Block all cookies." Anyone know how to fix this?

Those options have been removed in the latest version of Safari and there is no way to change that.


Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem or a suggestion for change. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem/suggested change solved sooner.
